The online system selects and provides content items to users of the online system in response to impression opportunities to provide content items to users.

A relationship between a value metric and computing resources used in the selection process are determined for each segment. Each relationship provides a rate of increase of the value metric given an increase in computing resources used. An allocation of computing resources used per impression opportunity for each of segment is determined based on the rates. A plurality of impression opportunities are identified.

    Abstract: An advertising system receives from an advertiser at a social networking system an advertisement request, the advertisement request comprising advertisement content and a specification of a target audience for the advertisement content. The advertising system defines a plurality of bid values for the advertisement request. For each of the plurality of bid values, the advertisement system estimates a corresponding value of advertisement reach for the target audience, for example, by estimating a number of users of the target audience for each of whom the given bid value is expected to have resulted in at least one successful impression. The advertiser is provided a visual representation of a bid-reach landscape representing the estimated plurality of advertisement reach values as a function of the plurality of bid values. The advertising system provides, to the advertiser, one or more recommendations for bid values for which corresponding return-on-investment metrics exceed a specified threshold.

    Abstract: An advertising system predicts advertisement reach for a received advertisement request based on an advertiser-specified bid amount and a specification of a target audience. The system samples the target audience, and for each sampled user of the target audience, accesses a recent impression history to obtain costs or bids associated with recent advertisement impressions. The system compares the advertiser-specified bid amount in the received advertisement request to costs or bid values associated with successful advertisement impressions, for each sampled user, in order to determine whether the received advertisement request would have won a bid auction for each given sampled user to successfully reach each given sampled user. An estimated aggregate reach for the sampled users is computed and extrapolated to the targeted user population to estimate a total reach of the advertisement content for the target audience.
